Sclerotherapy for Gulfport, MS Patients
If you live in Gulfport, MS and you're dealing with symptoms of vein disease, the Vein Institute offers sclerotherapy close to home. Our nearest office to Gulfport is in D’Iberville, where Dr. J. Keith Thompson and our clinical team diagnose and treat vein conditions using modern, minimally invasive methods.
What Is Sclerotherapy?
A quick, in-office injection treatment that closes off spider veins and small varicose veins with little to no downtime.
During sclerotherapy, a solution is injected directly into the affected vein. The solution irritates the vein wall so it collapses and is gradually absorbed by the body, while blood naturally reroutes through healthier veins nearby.

Who This Helps
Gulfport patients often come to the Vein Institute with one or more of these symptoms or questions about sclerotherapy:
- Visible spider veins or small varicose veins
- Mild aching near surface-level veins
- Veins that haven't improved with conservative measures like compression stockings
How It Works & Recovery
Your visit begins with a straightforward check-in, followed by time with your provider to go over your symptoms and concerns. Most patients also have an ultrasound exam the same day, which helps confirm the diagnosis before any treatment is recommended.
Sclerotherapy is quick and causes minimal discomfort. Most patients resume normal activities the same day and wear compression garments afterward. On average, patients need a minimum of 4–6 treatments spaced about three weeks apart to reach the desired result.
Why Gulfport Patients Choose The Vein Institute
Patients from Gulfport choose the Vein Institute because our D’Iberville office is approx. 16 mi (about 20 min) away and is staffed by a board-certified vein specialist rather than a general practice that treats veins occasionally. Dr. J. Keith Thompson is double board-certified in general and vascular surgery and is a Diplomate of the American Board of Venous and Lymphatic Medicine.
Our clinical team includes a double board-certified vascular surgeon, a Certified Vascular Sonographer with more than 18 years of vein ultrasound experience, and a Nurse Practitioner trained directly by Dr. Thompson in sclerotherapy — all focused exclusively on vein care.
